Okay, I'm back at it. I've noticed we definitely eat more delicious meals when we plan ahead. When we don't, we end up just sadly digging through our fridge and freezer trying to throw together whatever might go well together - and it usually is not well balanced.
After our vacation, and after eating most meals out for a week, we have decided that we need to limit our restaurant time until Ben is a little older. It's more expensive, and we are usually just rushing through our meal to get out of there before Ben freaks out. We will obviously go out from time to time, but meal planning is becoming even more important for this reason!
With that being said, we have plans to go out twice this week... :)
Sunday: We are going out to dinner with Lisa and Evan at Ravish. Lisa and I bought a Groupon to go here and it expires on April 30th. The plan is to have an early dinner and, since it's in the same building as Lisa's condo, hopefully we will be able to hang out at her place for awhile afterwards.
Monday: Lemon and Caper Cod and Strawberry Basil Quinoa Salad
Tuesday: Greg hinted that he may have a late night at work on Tuesday, so I will take that opportunity to make the Chicken Sausage and Quinoa Stuffed Squash dish again that I know Greg would not be a huge fan of.
Wednesday: Greg's birthday! We have another Groupon to use, this time at Tandem Wine Bar in Bothell. I may try to wrangle a babysitter for this one (Mom?) but Greg may also want to spend his birthday with Ben, too! TBD :)
Thursday: I think our friends Jess, Becca and Miles are going to try to come over for dinner, so we will probably BBQ hamburgers, make sweet potato fries and have a green salad.
Friday: Blackened cod tacos and homemade guacamole
